Fostering
I have fostered quite a bit for Nor Cal Boxer Rescue in CA and now a little bit for Green Acres Boxer Rescue in WI. I have always treated my foster dogs the same as mine. When they were younger I took them to the dog park alot and if I had a very social foster I took foster dog with. If not, the foster dog stayed home. We went on a number of camping trips with fosters but usually after a honeymoon/get to know you phase at home.
As far as letting them go....its hard, sometimes much harder than others. :-) I always think of it in terms of I have to let this one go so I have a spot for the next. The fosters usually are so thankful for the love, attention and food that it makes it so worth it!
